The overall gist of the feedback was that the colors sucked and that the previous landing page was confusing/not informative.  So I totally switched up the color scheme and added more content to the landing page.  Opening up the page layout allowed me to play with a different navigation flow to and from the homepage.  Here’s what the site looked like a few weeks ago.

One major difference now is the open availability of users’ answers across the site and more emphasis on user activity.  Will this draw more users to sign up?  Let’s hope so.

A couple of other things that have been keeping me busy:

• Finally figured out how to add the question text into the url using mod rewrite.  Downside to that was I lost all of the SEO juice I had already accumulated because I didn’t bother with a redirect.
• Created a star reward system for users – now users can get stars for being active qrispers, hooray!
• Added Facebook Comments but immediately removed them due to performance issues (debating whether or not I should create my own comments).
• Users can now change their answers.

Coming up next: photo galleries, personalized categories and Linode!
